Chicago, IL (Sports Network) - Marshawn Lynch rushed for 42 yards and two
touchdowns, as the Seattle Seahawks used a big second half to take down the
Chicago Bears, 38-14.

Lynch carried the ball 20 times and became Seattle's first 1,000-yard rusher
since Shaun Alexander in 2005.

Tarvaris Jackson completed 19-of-31 passes for 227 yards and a touchdown for
the Seahawks (7-7), who have won three in a row.

"We're really just taking one game at a time, and letting it take care of
itself," Jackson said. "I feel like we've done a great job of staying focused
on our opponent for that week and letting everything else take care of itself
when it comes. We can't play for everybody else; we can only play one game at
a time."

Caleb Hanie connected on 10-of-23 passes for 111 yards, a touchdown and three
interceptions for the Bears (7-7), who have dropped four straight.

Kahlil Bell carried the ball 15 times for 65 yards. He also caught five passes
for 43 yards and a score for Chicago, which was outscored 31-0 in the second
half.

Chicago wide receiver Johnny Knox was taken off the field on a stretcher in
the first quarter. He suffered a back injury after taking a hard hit.

"We have Green Bay coming up next, our rival," Bears head coach Lovie Smith
said. "There's enough things to get pumped up about just in that, but we're
still playing football as simple as that. We haven't been eliminated from
anything right now and our focus has to be improving and putting a better
product on the football field next weekend."

Down 14-7, the Seahawks started the second half with a five-play, 80-yard
scoring drive. Golden Tate and Ben Obomanu caught passes of 33 and 43 yards,
respectively, to move the ball to the three. Lynch then rumbled into the end
zone from there to make it 14-14.

On the second play of Chicago's ensuing possession, defensive lineman Red
Bryant picked off Hanie and went 20 yards the other way for a Seattle
touchdown.

Following multiple punts, Seattle took over at its own 46 with 4:37 to go in
the third quarter. A defensive pass interference penalty on third down gave
the Seahawks a fresh set of downs at the 33. The visitors settled for a 33-
yard Steven Hauschka field goal to make it 24-14.

After a Bears three-and-out, Leon Washington had a 36-yard punt return to give
Seattle the ball at the Chicago 29. Just six plays later, Michael Robinson
caught a two-yard TD pass to make it 31-14 with 12:39 remaining in the fourth.

Brandon Browner's 42-yard interception return for a touchdown made it a 38-14
contest with five minutes left.

After each team went three-and-out to start the game, Chicago took over at its
own three-yard line. The Bears lost Knox to injury on the third play. Knox
caught a 17-yard pass over the middle of the field before fumbling. Seattle
defensive lineman Anthony Hargrove came flying in and hit Knox up high. The
wide receiver's head snapped back due to the force of the hit. Knox was taken
off the field on a stretcher and the Bears ruled him out with a back injury.

Seattle recovered the ball at Chicago's 22-yard line. Cameron Morrah caught a
21-yard pass on the first play. But the Seahawks lost three yards over the
next three plays. Hauschka made a 22-yard field goal, but the Bears were
called for a penalty on the play. Lynch capitalized with a two-yard TD run to
make it 7-0 with 8:41 left.

Chicago moved the ball to the Seattle 38 before punting on the ensuing
possession. On 3rd-and-13 from his own one, Jackson dropped back and was
stripped by defensive end Julius Peppers. Israel Idonije recovered the ball in
the end zone for the Bears to make it 7-7 with 2:33 to go.

The home team put together a 10-play, 57-yard scoring drive late in the second
period. Chicago converted a pair of third downs on the march. On 3rd-and-4
from the Seattle 41, Dane Sanzenbacher caught an eight-yard pass. After three
runs by Marion Barber, Hanie hooked up with Bell on a 25-yard score for a 14-7
lead with 1:51 left.
